Using 1.6, 1.6.2 or 1.6.2.1 on a USB Drive
|
At the moment, WhatPulse Windows versions 1.6, 1.6.2 and 1.6.2.1 cannot be properly used on USB drives because they save the WhatPulse.wpw file in %APPDATA%\WhatPulse\. There are some steps, however, to run it off a USB stick: 1) Install WhatPulse on a USB stick; 2) Run WhatPulse from a computer that can access the internet, log in and finish setup; 3) Start -> Run -> type "%APPDATA%\WhatPulse\" and copy "WhatPulse.wpw" to your USB stick; 4) On the computer you want to run WhatPulse on, Start -> Run -> type "%APPDATA%" and create a new folder called "WhatPulse"; 5) Copy the "WhatPulse.wpw" file from your USB drive into the new folder in step 4; 6) Run WhatPulse.exe from the USB drive. When you're ready to pulse, just replace the WhatPulse.wpw file on your USB drive with the one in %APPDATA%\WhatPulse\, take it home, replace the WhatPulse.wpw file in your %APPDATA%\WhatPulse\ folder with the one on your USB drive, run WhatPulse, pulse, then copy WhatPulse.wpw back onto the USB drive to repeat! Sounds a lot more complicated than it is, and you need to do the last part after pulsing to get the new token in your WhatPulse.wpw file. WhatPulse 1.7 will feature far better USB support, but until then, that's probably the best way to do it.
